Restoration & Transformation Program
The Restoration & Transformation Program is about changed lives—not just on the outside, but deep lasting change. The program gives dedicated students the tools they need to overcome addictions and other life-controlling issues. The residential program for men offers counseling, educational opportunities, job and skills training, cultural exposure and work therapy projects. The focus is on renewing hope, restoring family relationships and returning once-broken men to productive lives. The program can accommodate 50 men at any given time. For more information, visit the Restoration & Transformation Program page.

Relief & Restoration Program
The Relief & Restoration Program (R & R) is designed to provide a community where needy, broken families and individuals have access to free resources that provide relief from such burdens. Our goal is to restore the hurting, hungry and lost community to being better, living wiser, knowing Jesus Christ. In addition to free food and clothing, the R & R program provides pastoral counsel, encouragement and prayer, an on-site social worker to help with special circumstances, and special events throughout the year. Everyone is required to join the program for access to resources twice a month. The R&R program is a Christian program offered Mon-Wed, every week. On those weeks, the 30-minute program could include the following:
- General Announcements
- Birthday/Holiday celebrations
- Training in Life Skills (How to handle money, how to prepare nutritious meals, job readiness, help for those experiencing domestic violence, etc.)
- Testimonies of change
- Raffle Prizes
- Brief Christian devotional/prayer
- Afterwards participants may receive clothing and groceries for free!
